This is by far the best fast food I've ever had! It's shwarma-esq and north indian-esq and east…read moreafrican-esq, but it's definitely amazing! I had the samosa and Channa(chickpeas), the samosa was made fresh, fried up right in front of me, filling was soft and fluffy with sliced potatoes- not the gross mash that has become standard fare for samosas. And the wrap was a perfect balance of crispy and chewy- none of that search where the filling ends and the wrap begins. The chickpeas, I've never had them like this before. Don't know what's in it, but I feel there might be some kind of marination magic. My friends had the beef shwarama and chicken shawarma. It was a true shaved beef shwarama like you get in the East and full of flavour. The chicken is finely balanced in unique blend of spices, flavourful but not overwhelming. The owners are wonderful people, proud Guelphites, and doing justice to the community they serve. Strike up a conversation and they'll be sure to point out great spots to visit, and things to do! And don't worry about your wallet, prices are between $8-10, so even if all you can find is change in your car or bag, you'll still be able to get a great meal out of it! We'll be regulars here whenever were driving nearby. Even a 1 hour detour is worth the visit. I guarantee you'll not find a place this unique, food this wonderful, and owners so proud of their city, and prices so affordable!

This was my first time eating at this restaurant and I can honestly say, it did not disappoint. It was highly recommended. A great little restaurant with a big bang of flavour!!!!!

Whether you buy plates or wraps you only get 5 toppings or you pay $1 extra for all the rest of the toppings - a first I have noticed at Shawarma joint. Disappointing. The falafel on fries or rice were OK. The fries and rice not seasoned at all. I am guessing they rely on dousing it with garlic sauce to make it better. But as the garlic sauce has eggs we didn't take any. The falafel freshly fried but were too dry for us. The little hot sauce we put didn't help either

It was so fresh, flavorful, and plentiful! I'm not a big foodie, but I savoured every bite. My father said it was the best birthday meal he'd ever had.

The person working was helpful in answering all my questions about which options were vegan. My BF got a bowl with chicken shawarma and all the toppings- he devoured it! Beware, the bowls are HUGE and you will definitely be full after eating them. I ordered the falafel wrap with all the veggies and just hummus (since the other options had dairy in them). We also ordered a side of fries. They were a little salty but we loved the spice on them. Both of our meals were outstanding. Our last day in town we didn't know where to eat so I suggested coming back again. We had another delicious meal cooked to order! I tried the dolmas that time and they were good, but not my favourite. Would definitely stop in again if we're ever in town.
